A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction

Nell had been sorting the post at the Quay office since six, and the letter from Scarborough had come back to her for the third time, its corners gone soft from the sea air. She turned it over. The hand on the front was the one she knew from every postcard her husband had ever sent, looping and joined, the letters leaning into each other as if they were trying to stay warm. The sorter had written across the top in pencil: Not known at this address. Try the slipway.

The slipway was where Agnes mended nets on Tuesdays, sitting on an upturned crate with a bone needle going in and out of the mesh. Nell held the envelope out without a word. Agnes wiped her hands on her apron, took the letter, and read it with her lips moving. The paper had blued at one edge from the damp, but the ink had held. Her husband had written only two words on the inside fold, in the same careful hand, and underlined them twice.

Agnes laughed, a short sound that caught in her throat. He never could spell, she said. Endless always came out with the wrong number of ells, and he'd been told so by every teacher in the parish. She folded the letter back along its creases and pressed it flat against her knee. Then she pushed a stub of pencil across the crate towards Nell and asked her to write back on her behalf, because her own hand shook too much now to keep a line straight.

Nell wrote the reply on the back of the envelope, slowly, copying the loops as well as she could. When she finished, the tide had turned and was lapping at the bottom of the slip. Agnes read it over her shoulder, nodded once, and tucked the envelope into her apron pocket without another word.
